EDITORS COMMENTS
Cavalry in Battle" is a stunning print by the renowned Dutch artist Philip Wouverman (1619-1668), also known as Philips Pauwelsz Wouwerman or Philips Woovermans. This masterpiece, created in the Baroque era of the 17th century, showcases the intensity and chaos of warfare during that time. The print is a superb example of Wouverman's skill in using red chalk with gray and brown wash on buff laid paper. In the foreground, a group of riders on horseback charge forward, their horses' hooves kicking up clouds of dust and debris. The riders, all dressed in armor and wielding weapons, are focused on the battle ahead, their determined expressions etched on their faces. Behind them, more cavalry units form a chaotic scene of clashing swords, thundering hooves, and the cacophony of war. The print is a testament to the artist's ability to capture the raw power and energy of the cavalry charge. The use of chalk and wash creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the horses and riders to life. The contrast between the light and dark areas adds to the dynamic nature of the scene, while the overall composition conveys a sense of movement and action. This print is an important addition to any art collection, particularly those focused on heritage art, Dutch art, or the Baroque era. It is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors. The image of "Cavalry in Battle" is a powerful reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the Low Countries and the enduring legacy of Philip Wouverman.
